Group 7-day waking average?

It’s another 7.3 today which seems to be my number most days
have a good day everyone
And a 7.3 for me today. Way out of normal for me but maybe it’s the universe telling us that we’re twins!
 
Congrats to @Kaylz and @Snowwy, I have got a 2 in my number but sadly it’s a 7.2 :(
One bedroom carpet being fitted today, will be great to get that done and the furniture put back in and the other being done next week. Once it’s all done my Christmas tree and decs are going up, hubby is not keen but need a bit of festive cheer.
As for the menopause, am glad I’m through it, it was rotten and twice thought it had passed only for the hot flushes and night sweats to reappear, hopefully this time it’s gone for good. My sympathies go to those if you still suffering it.
Have a good day all and @Michael12421 hope you have sorted that low number out xx
 
A 6.3 for ne today at 06:02 this morning.

Yes I have thank you. I have had a weird couple of days and nights. 2 nights of throwing up and 2 days of feeling very unwell. Yesterday I had lunch - usually never do - and by dinner time I was 13.7. Decided against dinner - wasn't hungry anyway - so just had 2 units of NR which brings me down about 5 but only 2.8 this morning. Einstein's Theory of Relativity pales into insignificance compared to the Theory of Diabetic Control.
 
Got quoted £30 by the local guitar shop. What? The guitar isn't worth that much. I've ordered a set of strings online (£5.85) and I'll do it myself.
I've never tried restringing a guitar but someone we know used to do mine for free (obviously I bought the strings, that's when we actually had a music shop in the town though!) xx

It sounds a constant battle but you seem to have made great strides recently, has been a relief most mornings to see your figures lately. Keep going and keep taking the advice the others are able to offer. Sadly I can only wince for your low numbers and be happy for your better ones x

Just checked and it’s now 5.8 so it must have been a glucose dump or something.
 
Morning. 7.5 on going to bed, 7.6 on getting up. Happy with that. Have a good day all. 🙂
 
Good evening folks 6 on the dot on a lovely busy day.🙂

Laundry first this morning washed and dried then converted wall light bulbs
to accept E14 Edison screw smart bulbs ( I know what it means) and connected
to Alexa, now just ask Alexa to switch them on and there is light.😎

Then to Lidl for a few bits & pieces, ended up with 2 carrier bags full of frozen
goods and a very large Lidl bag full of essentials.1605802737020.png

Congratulations @Kaylz & @Snowwy on your HS.🙂

Careful @Michael12421 pushing the boat out again, sorry you have not been well
any idea what the cause is? please take care.

Dentist tomorrow folks 09:00 taxi job, an oldy coming up, she said your teeth are ok
but your gums have to come out.:D Courtesy of Les Dawson Bum Bum.

Take care stay safe except at Christmas.🙂
 
Thanks @rebrascora. 🙂 The doctor was fab - he’s really funny and had us all in stitches (well, me literally:D). He’s very laid back and we went thru all the options. What a great appointment!
So pleased it went well and you had a laugh too. Are you going to get HRT?
 
04:44 BS 5.2! :D I don’t get many of these AND it was a slightly less tingly day in that I tried 2 500mg paracetamol that didn’t do anything but, tried 1 dose just in case & then, I tried a heat patch on my lower back as far back on the right as I could reach: about halfway to the centre of my back; numbing tingles all down my right side from neck down & my first shoulder injury, on the right, that’s painfree, nonetheless means I don’t have much backward movement, more or less full upward, of my arm on that side! I had some leftover from treating my 2nd shoulder injury on the left last year & thought I’d give them a go: it worked a treat along with the hot water bottle between my legs; that was a gamble too as I had to stop using heat on my shoulder because it burned me & had to use ice packs instead! So, relieved that it worked on my back & actually didn’t feel the heat but, it lessened the sharpness of the tingles! Almost a😛 as it would be even better if the tingles are completely gone!🙄:D

A very early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Another tingly day for me but, slightly less & I’m coping better! Hopefully will not last much longer? 🙄

Morning all,
Congratulations @Lanny on your HS.
Today I am with @Michael12421 with a 5.9...
Bit chilly last night but a better day forecast.
Going to try my hand at baking this weekend, so off to Sainsbury's for the ingredients.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning, very cold one again

I've been doing some indoor jogging on the wii, mule slippers don't offer the best support so my ankles are rather sore after a week :( I'll be giving it a miss today

Anyway 6.2 after 2 dark chocolate digestives last night at bedtime

Congratulations on your HS Lanny
xx
 
Good morning everyone. A very surprising 9.2 for me this morning. Its a new sensor so checked with finger prick but nope, its right. Oh well, hopefully it will be going down soon. Fingers crossed.

I'm very glad its Friday, its been a long week. Have a good day everyone
 
5.1 this morning. 🙂
Well done @Lanny on the House Special.
